Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan on Tuesday termed letter by Qatar prince inPanama Papers case was ‘fake’.
Addressing a media briefing IK said “The Qatari letter is a fraud and forgery for which the prince should be sentenced and jailed. He is not supposed to turn out in person,”
“In 2004, Mayfair flats were worth Rs 4 billion. Where did Maryam Nawaz acquire such enormous wealth from?” questioned the PTI chairman.
Imran said that on every platform, Maryam had claimed that she lived with Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, which only meant that it was not her wealth but Nawaz Sharif’s. He said that PTI had collected evidence in these past couple of days during which there was a break from the Panama Leaks proceedings.
Khan said that it was Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif’s job to prove his innocence and not the opposition’s task.
“Every week, PML-N’s Motu Gang claims that PTI has not brought forth any evidence. Collecting evidence is the job of NAB, FBR, FIA and other investigative agencies,” said Imran.
He also lashed out at the Prime Minister and ruling party for calling the Panama Papers fake. “If the documents are fake, the PM should have sued International Consortium of Investigative Journalists (ICIJ) and move the court with proofs,” he said.
“Nawaz Sharif has lied both on the Assembly floor as well as in the court. They don’t have the money trail to prove themselves,” he said.
“Where did she get the money, from when she is dependent on her father? There is no beneficiary of the firms like Hussain Nawaz claimed. There is one owner and that is Maryam Nawaz Sharif,” he said
